If you like subtle sensuality, then GLYNIS DAVIES is pretty strong in that department. It’s been a some time since I last spotlighted a Canadian talent and it’s satisfying to have the lovely GLYNIS showered with honeyed words. Actually I saw Melissa Leo in “Red State” and was impressed at how she credibly goaded those 3 unlucky young men into a ghastly fate (they had made contact with her prostitute character). It’s that very understated seductiveness that one will be able to identify with GLYNIS. After all she did try to entice a married man in the demonic thriller “Hard Ride To Hell” (watch the clip above). Hey now, we all recognize age is no barrier to being a temptation…:)

It’s really amazing to see fans compiling a list of hot actresses over 40,50 and 60; A reflection of the value of older women on film as well as television and an unmistakable cue for me to feature them more often in the future. GLYNIS is of course ever so lovely and she can be equally engaging behind As Maryann Wallace, mother of Eli on “Stargate Universe”, GLYNIS shone in those poignant moments of a woman battling both physical and emotional demons. While she’s very active on the TV scene having appeared in shows like Smallville, Eureka, The X-Files, etc, she has on occasion taken a crack on several independent films. Cozy in a wide range of roles and thoroughly pleasant, she’s watchable all the way.

The fact that so many people are willing to impersonate Troian Bellisario and Ashley Benson on Facebook is a reflection of their explosive popularity. Last night “Pretty Little Liars” had its Season 2 premiere and our addiction to the show keeps getting stronger as the mystery deepens on who holds the key to their darkest secrets. Yup, I know there’s actually 4 gorgeous ladies forming the core of the show yet only Troian and Ashley have an social-networking presence. We would like to think the whodunit panders to teens but more and more audiences are cutting across varying age groups drawn no doubt to the tasty duo and their resplendent onscreen fettle. Let’s indulge in the merry-go-round of suspense and histrionics as long as our weekly fix of these enchanting cuties are satiated…personally i think the antagonist “A” could actually be one of these two!!

Mila Kunis is not the only Russian born actress that’s making waves in the US as youthful starlet Katerina Mikailenko is charting her own path to success. A supporting role in the Christina Aguilera/Cher vehicle “Burlesque” has led to her booking a major part in an upcoming episode of brand new detective drama “The Protector”. We may still be waiting for a teaser/promo to be released but it’s a sure bet Katerina will add mountainous appeal to the eye-candy cast led by leading lady Ally Walker. She’s going to be on the rapid rise especially since she’s nabbed the lead role in the legend Malcolm McDowell’s thriller “Death Method” as well as appearing in “Crazy,Stupid,Love” with Sexiest Man Alive in-waiting Ryan Gosling. Young Hollywood has an exciting future ahead thanks to the emergence of the bewitching Katerina Mikailenko whom viewers are quickly devoting their attention on.

While we have to wait until August to catch Kim Poirier return as Dr Maria Leonardo in “Eureka”, everyone knows she’s one of Canada’s most fetching Sex Symbols. I read that even Kim thought that this particular role was a one-off…I’m guessing due to popular demand, Kim is donning the doctor overcoat once more so her fans around the world can now rejoice!! She may have shed her sizzling sauciness for geeky scientist chic yet her irresistible facets is charmingly intact. Even though she’s famed for partaking in those memorably raunchy scenes in “Dawn Of The Dead” and “Decoys”, her body of work is deeply diverse showcasing the incredible range that she possesses. If you’ve always had a crush on the Miss Kim Poirier, this Summer Season is the time to be in constant affection of this sexy yet adorably down-to-earth Canadian Siren.

Without a doubt, Charlene Amoia is becoming the quintessential darling of TV Land with strong performances in a series of hit shows notably “Glee” and “Shameless”. Already in 2011, she’s been dazzling our screens on episodes of “NCIS:LA” and “Mad Love” in addition to reprising her role as fan favorite Wendy The Waitress from hit “How I Met Your Mother. Lusciously Omnipresent and OmniPotent would best describe the pleasure Charlene has brought into our precious couch potato time. Has anyone mention that Charlene could pass off as the twin sister of one Miss Shannon Elizabeth? Imagine the two of them in a feature together….that would be so enjoyable…:) After all, Charlene is a genuine Goddess and she’s well-loved by being delightfully accommodating to her fans even one like me living miles away. A heavenly sweetheart who deserves all the tributes.

The new series “Love Bites” about the ups and downs of being single might just leave you with a hickey, that is if you were watching with your significant other. After her mega-bitch scene-stealing turn in “Ugly Betty”, Becki Newton was tapped to star as one of only two unattached women in a group of friends. There’s an open concept behind the show with Becki (Annie) and Jordana Spiro (Frannie) central to the vignettes of love mixed in with a revolving door of characters that have issues with romance. Pamela Adlon and Jennifer Love Hewitt are set to have recurring roles that are thoroughly delicious (don’t miss the trailer above). Shifting from her dirty days as Betty-Hating Amanda Tanen to her now pristine innocence as virginal Annie, she’s got us enamored all over again. Who is a virgin these days anyways…and on the strength of that premise alone, viewers are expected to follow “Love Bites” for the inevitable “Breaking Her Cherry” conclusion to Becki’s chaste character!
